Asked by Alea

A falling 50-kg skydiver experiences an upward acceleration of 6.2 m/s2 when she opens her parachute?
Show (by calculation) how much drag force is produced by the parachute?

How would I calculate this?



F(net) = F(drag) - F(gravity)
F(drag) = F(net) + F(gravity)
F(drag) = ma + mg
F(drag) = m(a +g)
F(drag) = 50(6.2 + 9.8) = 800 N


Would this be correct?
